[RndTbl] Linux on MTS ADSL

[Dan & Michele]

When I first configured my dsl connection on linux, I was on Caldera ... I did the
manual kernel rebuild method ...  the dsl box of mine is currently on redhat 7.1
and from what I recall, it's built right in as a user-mode type app ...

Note the "S80pppoe" link below ...
